There are all types and sizes for what it is worth
|
Bitches and witches and scrubbers and worse
|
But they're loved and adored and have a load to bear
|
To be feeling, to empathise and mostly to care
|
|
In the womb we begin and are fed and are formed
|
But it's time for eviction when we are born
|
But now there's a mother and a new life to be
|
And the child doesn't know the difference between she and me
|
|
And maybe from birth
|
Mother Nature becomes Mother Earth
|
|
In the arms of a woman lie the lost and the found
|
It's the arms of a woman hold the world, turn it 'round
|
Could the arms of a woman be the last, be the first
|
So could God be a woman for the whole universe
|
|
And maybe we never forgive for having been let go
|
But we always need our mummies, their love and their home
|
But there is no perfect mother, eventually she'll fail
|
She'll love us and leave us, love and leave us again
|
|
Mythology has Atlas holding up the Earth
|
But it should have been a woman, the bedrock from birth
|
But she is only human, she'll have to leave the room
|
It's painful to learn that life is not a womb
|
|
And we grow
|
Because of the letting go
|
|
In the arms of a woman lie the lost and the found
|
It's the arms of a woman hold the world, turn it 'round
|
Could the arms of a woman hold the life, give the birth
|
So could God be a woman for the whole universe
|
|
The Earth is a she
|
A nation is a she
|
A ship is a she
|
Carry us over the sea
|
|
In the arms of a woman lie the lost and the found
|
It's the arms of a woman hold the world, turn it 'round
|
Could the arms of a woman be the last, be the first
|
So could God be a woman for the whole universe
|
|
A mother figure is a mother, mother figure of speech
|
Mother figures are there to love and to teach
|
They can be Nannies, Grannies, and others who are glad
|
To watch over and care, she can even be a Dad
